Fires in Carrazeda de Ansiães and Vila Pouca de Aguiar enter resolution phase
The fires in the municipalities of Carrazeda de Ansiães and Vila Pouca de Aguiar, which broke out over the weekend, are now in a resolution phase, with 300 personnel deployed.

In the municipality of Carrazeda de Ansiães, two fires have been reported with ongoing combat efforts. The flames in Linhares were brought under control by firefighters during the night from Saturday to Sunday. The fire consumed areas of brush and forest but entered a resolution phase around 11:00 AM. Meanwhile, an active fire in Paradela, also in the same municipality, was also controlled throughout the morning, allowing it to transition to a resolution phase.
Given the intensity of the fires in the region, around 300 personnel were involved in the firefighting efforts, according to various sources. The Ministry of Education reported that the number of analyses pending for schools is minimal, suggesting that the impact on educational institutions is reduced.
The fire in Carrazeda de Ansiães is now under control, having entered the resolution phase at 5:30 PM. The flames in Vila Pouca de Aguiar are almost contained, with the situation being closely monitored by local authorities. In an update, it was noted that the mobilization of personnel was essential to achieving this phase.
During the weekend, firefighting efforts were intensified due to weather conditions and dry vegetation, which favored the spread of the flames. The number of personnel and equipment deployed was deemed adequate for the severity of the situation, allowing for efficient mop-up operations.
While most of the flames have been extinguished, authorities continue to monitor the situation to prevent re-ignition. The firefighting teams remain vigilant to ensure that fire hotspots do not emerge again, as the affected vegetation still poses risks.
This is an example of collaboration among different entities in response to emergency situations. The swift response allowed for the resolution to be achieved in relatively short times, despite the severity of the fires. The focus now is on maintaining the controlled situation and supporting the affected areas.
